Bene Sera --
I am now in the mission house in Chisunau. There are four of us in a very nice room complete with a/c and bottled water...two essentials for this trip.
We visited an elder house today. We delivered bananas, candy, cookies to 400 residents. The conditions are very very hard in this state operated home for elder and disabled. No one could speak English, but love did translate.
We also visited a nearby village. We stepped back in time about 100 years and visited a small Baptist church that averages 20-30 people at Sunday Service, most of whom are children. The pastor and his wife live Chisunau but drive the 30 to 40 k. to this very rural area. Eastern NC is a metropolis compared to this little community. Cow, chickens, and dogs were common than cars on the dirt throughfares. We delivered food bags to these folks. This was a first for them and didn't quite understand but again the love of God easily translates.
More tomorrow.
